  • 枫下沙龙 / 游山玩水 / 寻一女性旅伴在墨西哥自驾游

    Hi there,

    The almost year-long lockdown has been very depressive.  Basically we've not been allowed to travel.  Thanks God, Mexico opened up again a few months ago, and it's one of the few countries that we can visit now.

    Mexico is very nice to people in Canada.  No matter you're a citizen, Maple Leave Card holder, or on study or work visa, as long as you can legally visit Canada, you can legally visit Mexico without a Mexican visa.

    I've been to Mexico a few times.  But Mexico is so big and has so many places to visit.  So I'm planning a 2-week-trip to Mexico during the coldest days of Canada, i.e. Late January to mid February.  After an extensive research, I came out with a road trip itinerary.

    The features of this trip are:

    - The destination of one of the planet's most spectacular butterfly migrations. (Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve)

    - Natural hot springs, spas, and pools. (Los Azufres Spa Natural & Manantial Media Luna)

    - Climbing a baby volcano, only 77 years old. See a church buried by lava. (Volcano Paricutín)

    - A colonial town, rich in culture and history, with music, dance, architecture, and among the best culinary experiences in the country. (San Miguel de Allende)

    - Incredible waterfalls that "look as though they've been photoshopped". (Cascade de Tamul & Cascadas de Minas Viejas)

    - A coastal town famous for its seafood. (Tampico)

    - Caribbean beaches for local Mexicans (Playa De Tamiahua)

    To have a rough idea, have a look at the following images.

    The budget of this trip is from 2000 to 2500 in CAD, per person.

    I'm going to rent a car for the whole trip.  Although COVID is no longer a big concern in Mexico, by renting a car, we don't need to use public transportation so we feel it's even safer.

    I'm a very experienced traveler.  I travelled abroad each year.  This time I'd like to find a travel pal to go together.  I'm mature, respectful, reliable, open-minded and easy-going.

    I expect you to be such a person:

    • You are a female
    • You enjoy nature and culture
    • You are fit, being able to hike steep and rugged trail.
    • You are easy-going and open-minded too.
    • You are positive and cheerful.
    • You are open to Mexican cuisine; You're not a vegetarian.
    • You are a safe driver

    Please send me a private message if you are interested in it, or if you have any questions.

    Thanks for reading.

    • 疫情就这么传染开的。 +9
    • What’s your gender? When you come back, do you need two-week quarantine here in Canada? +1
      • 男性
      • Yes. A 2-week self quarantine is required after returning to Canada.
    • 你是男是女?为什么写英文? +1
      • 男性
    • 谢谢大家提醒。看到新的lockdown通知。飞墨西哥仍然合法。回来后需要2周自我隔离。
      • 是住一个房间吗?
        • No. Accommodation in Mexico is not expensive.
    • 功课做的真好。收藏了。谢谢!
      • 什么时候去?
        • 至少三四年之后吧 😜。明年一开禁,单子上排在前面的有,南极,挪威。。。
          • 明年开禁?就你想去的这两个地方,基本上不可能。英国美国,估计能行。
            • 美国就算了,不是公务绝对不想去。英国还有些地方没去。日本,台湾,虽然去过,也都还有的玩。大陆对我们开禁了也可以去。感觉后年开始,旅游业会展开大反攻。
      • 心动了?
        • 为啥不哩?还没去过墨西哥中部这块。
          • 我也想去。不过,那里有啥好看的?你知道吗?
            • 哈哈,楼主做的那么好的功课呀,所以我收藏了。 +1
              • Thank you! Glad that it's helpful.
    • 當地治安女士可以安心旅遊?
      • Mexico is big. The area we go to is safe. +1
    • 男的行不?
      • 不行✋
      • 可以先考虑做变性手术。。。
      • 你说你觉得自己是女的就行了 +1
        • 沒錯!致少能通過手術前的心理測驗。 +1
    • 好计划!现在还是可以飞吧,好像看新闻,最近很多人因为无法家庭聚会,跑去墨西哥,多米尼加等地方。
      • Yes. Mexico reopened in June.
    • 这条路线有什么特色吗? 尤其是墨西哥湾那一带。没怎么听说过。
      • I wrote it in my original post.
        • 看到了。但是不知道这里和大家知道的著名海滨城市La Paz, Puerto Vallarta, Veracruz, Cancun等相比较有什么特色?我手边的旅游书都没有提墨西哥湾的这几个地方。
          • There are less gringos.
            • 嗯。学了个新词。我觉得也不需要游客太少。那通常意味着那里没有什么旅游景点。只要不是单独为外国游客准备的景点就行。
              • gringo, 拉美人通称美国人,不是正式的用法,类似于汉语的鬼佬。
                • 都到了San Miguel了,为什么不去Guanajuato, Queretaro?其实San Miguel是米国人养老的地方,很多美国人。 +1
                  • Good idea! Will add them when I actually go in the future. Thanks for the suggestions! +1
